How do teenagers view the traditional culture of China?

1. Contemporary youth's cognition of China's traditional culture In recent years, China's traditional culture has been rediscovered and spread all over the world, which is not only the effect brought by China's national strength improvement, but also because China's traditional culture itself contains rich values. However, under the special background of "globalization", contemporary youth are influenced by one-sided foreign thoughts and lack a thorough and comprehensive understanding of China's traditional culture, which needs to be cultivated and strengthened, mainly in the following two aspects:

First, the traditional cultural literacy of contemporary youth is not high. While the reading of world famous books has been paid attention to, the reading of the Four Books and Five Classics has actually been weakened to some extent. Traditional cultural classics, such as four classic novels, four books and five classics, are extremely rich in nutritional value. If they just stay on the surface of words, they will feel boring. Only by recognizing their essence can we appreciate the charm of traditional culture, which puts forward higher requirements for contemporary youth to understand traditional culture, but most of them have not yet reached the realm of understanding the essence of traditional culture.

Second, contemporary youth have a strong interest in traditional culture. Most young people have a high sense of identity with traditional culture. They think it is necessary to inherit these precious cultures, but they don't have enough opportunities to understand them in depth, which shows the urgency of promoting traditional culture.

Second, the necessity of contemporary youth to inherit traditional culture

(1) Traditional culture is the precious wealth of the Chinese nation. Powerful Chinese characters and profound landscape paintings all reflect the wisdom of ancient China literati. The responsibility of "worrying about the world first, and enjoying the world later" is the connotation of moral mission in traditional culture. Traditional culture has left us with profound and lasting spiritual wealth in its unique form. Contemporary youth's understanding of traditional culture is inevitably different from that of students from other countries on the level that Chinese is "too difficult". Contemporary youth, as the absolute driving force for the development of China, is closely related to traditional culture. Inheriting and developing this precious culture is the innate advantage of young people in China.

(2) Inheriting traditional culture is the duty and mission of contemporary youth. On the one hand, traditional culture is a national gene, which exists in every China. It is a necessary condition for contemporary youth to maintain national self-confidence and the spiritual basis for us to form national cohesion. As a member of the Chinese nation, we should deepen their sense of national belonging and pride by promoting traditional culture; On the other hand, the new expansion of capitalism has brought us a crisis of national identity, which comes from our understanding of traditional culture. As the main force of inheriting traditional culture, contemporary youth should consciously shoulder the important mission of carrying forward traditional culture, establish correct cultural concepts, pay attention to their own development, hold high the banner of national development, and promote the progress of themselves and the nation.

Third, how do contemporary youth inherit traditional culture?

Cultivating contemporary youth's cultural consciousness is an important prerequisite for contemporary youth's values education. China's traditional culture was created by China people. It is not only the intermediary of cultural contact between previous generations of China people, but also the result of conscious choice and active creation by future generations. In this kind of inheritance and development, the subjective consciousness of conscious creation and choice is very necessary. As an important undertaker of inheriting and developing traditional culture, contemporary China youth need to abandon the blind and comfortable state, but should have a conscious level. The blind acceptance attitude of "using the old but not knowing" is not recognition and inheritance, but standing still with the burden of traditional culture. Contemporary youth must establish cultural consciousness, understand traditional culture with dialectical and critical thinking, so as to reach the level of consciousness, and then truly bring traditional culture into their own value system and moral cognition framework, and consciously apply it to practical problems, so as to give full play to the real educational value of traditional culture.
